She watched Tanner as he noted every detail of the room—especially her.
She shivered and recalled her explosive reaction to the innocent touch of her fingers against Tanner’s skin. Not a problem. She’d keep her hands away from him and on her work, and keep her mind on her promise to Mr. Frank.
A detail in the investigator’s report popped into her head: While Tanner had no shortage of women in his life, he either couldn’t keep them, or didn’t want to, since no relationship ever lasted more than a couple of months.
Why had that little morsel surfaced? He wasn’t even her type.
She could so easily picture Tanner at home in Fairfax House. New Haven would embrace him, give him the sense of belonging and roots he had lost since his parents died. The fact that she could see it wasn’t enough, though—he had to, also….
Dear Reader,
Brr…February’s below-freezing temperatures call for a mug of hot chocolate, a fuzzy afghan and a heartwarming book from Silhouette Romance. Our books will heat you to the tips of your toes with the sizzling sexual tension that courses between our stubborn heroes and the determined heroines who ultimately melt their hardened hearts.
In Judy Christenberry’s Least Likely To Wed, her sinfully sexy cowboy hero has his plans for lifelong bachelorhood foiled by the searing kisses of a spirited single mom. While in Sue Swift’s The Ranger & the Rescue, an amnesiac cowboy stakes a claim on the heart of a flame-haired heroine—but will the fires of passion still burn when he regains his memory?
Tensions reach the boiling point in Raye Morgan’s She’s Having My Baby!—the final installment of the miniseries HAVING THE BOSS’S BABY—when our heroine discovers just who fathered her baby-to-be…. And tempers flare in Rebecca Russell’s Right Where He Belongs, in which our handsome hero must choose between his cold plan for revenge and a woman’s warm and tender love.
Then simmer down with the incredibly romantic heroes in Teresa Southwick’s What If We Fall In Love? and Colleen Faulkner’s A Shocking Request. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll fall in love all over again with these deeply touching stories about widowers who get a second chance at love.
So this February, come in from the cold and warm your heart and spirit with one of these temperature-raising books from Silhouette Romance. Don’t forget the marshmallows!
Happy reading!

Dear Reader,
For most of my life, I was content to devour books the way some people binge on chocolate. Writing proved as natural as breathing, but remained personal and private.
I had no idea that fateful night when I walked into a creative writing class at a local community college that my life would never be the same. After all, I was only looking for something fun to do. The class was actually “How To Write a Novel,” and the instructor, a romance author. She saw something in my writing and insisted I attend a local writer’s conference. Once there, she took me under her wing and within hours I was hooked.
Years later, I told that same instructor/author that I didn’t know if I wanted to thank her or curse her. I was thrilled to have a dream, but frustrated by how long it was taking to make that dream come true. And just like the single woman who swears off men soon meets the love of her life, when I had decided to worry less about getting published and write because I love to write, I sold! Getting the call from Silhouette Romance was one of the most exciting moments of my life and proof that dreams shouldn’t come with expiration dates.
I can’t imagine anything more rewarding than writing about the power of love. My hope is that as you read Right Where He Belongs, you’ll become so involved in Cassie and Tanner’s struggle to find true happiness and love, that hours will go by and seem like minutes; when you return to your life with all its challenges and joys, you’ll be ready to do some dreaming of your own.
